I'm stopping by with a card I made with new Graciellie Designs digital stamps!! If you are a fan of poppies, this set is for you!! Ready to go cluster or all you need to make your own! It's just gorgeous!! It's called Beautiful Day!
I started with the cluster of poppies, resizing it in Word and adding a sentiment. I printed it out and then I got to coloring it! I picked out some colors that are a challenge to blend, following The Coloring Challenge Road Trip class available at Online Card Classes! Kathy Racoosin has lots of coloring tips and tricks in this class!!
Not only did I challenge myself to use 3 colors that are not normally used to blend with, but also used a dark purple colored pencil to add a little more depth to the nooks and cranies of the poppies!
I used a stitched rectangle die to cut out my colored poppies and sentiment. From my stash I pulled out a flower pattern done in white and grey, adhering it to a white card base. Then I added the colored panel with fun foam. I wanted to use foam tape, but all I had was lots of small dots, but the panel is large and would be tedious!! Instead I die cut white fun foam with the same die and then adhered it to my panel and then to the card base! So easy!
Thanks so much for stopping by!!
